Default QAD Ultra Rest

Just got it put on and it is AWSOME!!! Im already shooting better groups. Swiched from and WB and I like the QAD better.

What do you guys do to quiet it down when it hits the bow???

I put a piece of soft felt where it falls on the riser. It didnt need it though.

I too just recently switched from my ole reliable WHISKER BISCUIT to the QAD Ultra "Hunter" rest, it was a major improvement in my arrow grouping as well as speed and quietness. Great rest! I bought the lower-end rest (Hunter) for $50.00 at Gander Mountain, the ONLY difference in the $50.00 rest and the other QAD Ultra $100+ rest is camo and a harmonic silencer.

I've setup the QAD rest on all of my bows. I've never had a problem with any noise. I've set them all up where the rest doesn't make contact with the bow. Never had any problems.

When needed I have a aelf adhesive foam that works great on the shelf to quiet a dropaway. It's about 1/8" thick.

The launcher also locks down to prevent it from bouncing back and contacting the arrow.

I tried the QAD Ultra and ended up selling it . I couldn't eliminate the problem of vane clearance . Bought a DMI rest and put it on my Parker and put a Trophy Ridge drop Zone on my Pearson .

I was thinking QDMA and I misspelled it! OOPS!!![&:] Well at least you knew what I ment. I had the guy at GM to put it on (I dont trust my self with that kind of stuff) and he put it on to where the rest hits the shelf.
